    Hopefully you share the disdain for the flat that the shrewd on here recommend Derek. Welcome aboard.

    Same to All new posters.

    Hello - Yorick here. My first post.

    Good morning all.

    I'd just like to introduce myself to the forum. My name's Yorick and I have been writing on horseradcing forums for years now. Firstly, the old GG.com and when that closed down, I moved to Everything horse Racing (EHR).

    Things being what they are on that forum, I have decided to give this one a try and see how it goes. It seems like there's lots of traffic on here, which is good and I look forward to posting the odd thought when anything interesting to say pops up.

    NH is my true love, I should confess but today I will share my enthusiasm for one in the 8.15 Chelmesford by the name of Deeds Not Words,.

    I backed it lto and thought I noticed Franny Norton give what is generally referred to as a 'gentle' ride. Unfortunately, the stewards also noticed it and so I do wonder whether today will be the day but in any case, I do think it has definitely coasted onto my radar screen as one to watch.

    I cannot believe that my first post on here will yield a winner but I share my thoughts anyway.


    Good luck

    If you click on the Forum button and then on Horse Racing you'll see a number of threads that have been "stickied" amongst those you'll find New Members - Welcome to Talking Horses - welcome to Talking Horses Yorick.
    Ah! but a man's reach should exceed his grasp......

    Im sure everyone will benefit from the insight of nh racing by yorick.
    He has been well respected on other forums and loves to discuss views.
    I certainly await his views.

    I know 17d. I was in a state of high anxiety all day that somebody would beat me to it.
